nothing was the same

The last we heard a solo cut from Drizzy was back in June when he went from 0 to 100 real quick over an iconic instrumental from Boi-1da, 40, and Nineteen85. Today, YMCMB's golden child returns with "How About Now," a fresh drop uncovered by those computer savvy hip-hop heads over at Reddit.

For some reason, BET decided to unveil the winners of 2014's Hip-Hop Awards before the show airs later tonight. DJ Mustard came away with a whopping three of the 18 awards, with Kendrick Lamar, Drake and YG/Jeezy/Rich Homie Quan all snagging two each.

Last September, right around the time when Drake's acclaimed album Nothing Was The Same was dropping, Wu-Tang Clan's U-God announced that he and his crew had recorded a remix of Drizzy's track "Wu-Tang Forever." A year has passed, and we still have no sign of that posse cut, so what happened?

The intro to Drake's "Pound Cake"-- the closing track from Nothing Was The Same --featured a very prominent sample from a 1982 Jazz song, "Jimmy Smith Rap", performed by Jimmy Smith. The clip used in the song is not actually musical, but simply a spoken word interlude about the joys of recording.

Rising Saint Paul, Minnesota emcee Taylor J has put his own spin on Drake, Jay Z and Boi-1da's "Pound Cake", from the former's latest album Nothing Was The Same.
Listen to the original here. How'd he do?

Listen to Worst Behavior (Eric Dingus Remix), the new track by Drake, which was dropped on Thursday, January 9th, 2014. Drake's odds keep getting better with each new leak, and Worst Behavior (Eric Dingus Remix) will undoubtedly improve his chances of winning.

Here it is, ladies and gentlemen: Drake and Hit-Boy's "Trophies". Is it as dope as you expected?
This is a rough, unfinished version, tho - the full, completed version will apparently be dropping this evening. Stay tuned.

Bump WORSE (Worst Behavior Remix) , the latest cut from Busdriver. It dropped on Monday, November 25th, 2013. Busdriver's horizons are broadening with each new release, and WORSE (Worst Behavior Remix) is no exception.
